Millennium Lyrics

We've got stars directing our fate And we're praying it's not too late Millennium Some say that we are players Some say that we are pawns but we've been making money since the day that we were born Got to slow down, cause we'll low down. Round and round in circles live a life of solitude 'till we find ourselves a partner someone to relate to Then we slow down, before we fall down. We've got stars directing our fate And we're praying it's not too late 'cause we know we're falling from grace Millennium Live for liposuction, detox for your rent Overdose for Christmas and give it up for Lent My friends are all so cynical refuse to keep the faith We all enjoy the madness 'cause we know we're gonna fade away. We've got stars directing our fate And we're praying it's not too late 'cause we know we're falling from grace Millennium Come and have a go if you think you are hard enough Come and have a go if you think you are hard enough Millennium Millennium We've got stars directing our fate And we're praying it's not too late 'cause we know we're falling from grace Millennium (Sometimes you know) And when we come we always come too late I often think that we were born to hate get up and see the sarcasm in my eyes. And when we come we always come too late I often think that we were born to hate Get up and see the sarcasm in my eyes. We've got stars directing our fate (Millennium) and we're praying it's not too late (Millennium) 'cause we know we're falling from grace (Millennium) (And we won't stop) We've got stars directing our fateand we're praying it's not too late 'cause we know we're falling from grace Millennium (fades)

Meaning of Millennium

“Millennium” is a darkly humorous and melancholic reflection on the human condition at the cusp of a new era, questioning whether we’re truly in control of our destinies. Robbie Williams explores themes of disillusionment, cynicism, and the frantic pursuit of fleeting pleasures amidst an overwhelming sense of impending doom. The lyrics depict a world obsessed with superficial fixes – cosmetic surgery, detox diets, and religious rituals – while simultaneously acknowledging a deep-seated desire for connection and genuine faith that’s often abandoned. There's a desperate plea to “pray it’s not too late,” suggesting a fear of falling from grace and a recognition that we are perpetually running out of time. The repeated refrain emphasizes this feeling of inevitability, culminating in the unsettling assertion that perhaps we were born to hate, capturing a sense of weary sarcasm and acknowledging a fundamental dissatisfaction with life's perceived absurdity.
